Three times ive had to say this now, Neither option will be more buggy than the other, it is SIMPLY a choice between all on one island or the ability to roam them all

People still seem to be stuck in a stability/number of vehicles mindset with this question. Car numbers will be the same on each island which ever way it is done, as for stability gta3mta so far is MUCH more stable than mtavc. So please focus on the crux of the question, do you want all 32 people stuck on one island together on every server (option one) or do you want them to be able to spread out across the whole city (option 2). Black dragon: As cray said we have already done some research and testing regarding the dodo and there is a possibility that it will be able to traverse the entire map with option 2. It may have to lock its doors to prevent people getting into it on island one then exiting on island 2, or we may be able to allow total freedom. that remains to be seen once we decide which direction we are taking the mod itself.

option 2 will work or we wouldn't be offering it as an option, the question is simply would you prefer a single island on a server or all the islands on a server and the differing game experiences each will present. So do not be swayed by the doomsayers and the people suggesting wild things that were not mentioned (such as linking multiple servers together). Simply vote for which you feel you would prefer to play.

Come on peeps, keep your member lists updated in here, we dont want to have to go to your first post or trawl through your entire thread to find the list when we have this sticky prominently placed. (also much easier for YOU to find and edit it when needed) VCA is updated, I look forward to seeing the new gangs details in here and the updated lists from the established gangs.

VCA We have some allys! my favourite alley is the one i took Jane cassidy into last friday after the pubs closed, we.. Loendal: No bump, not that kind of alley. Allies Oh, well then i choose ally McBeal and Ally mcgraw and ally.. Loendal: No no, Allies. People you will work alongside and not shoot when in servers. Ah, I'm not allowed to shoot at them? well bugger. In that case I choose VCA Loendal: *Sigh*. It has to be a different gang. Ohhh, well then i guess its: The KFC boys for being generally cool and not scratching my sabre's paint. The VCK boys for being the gang that inspired VCA and that previously brought us, 'Mikiro - killer on the loose', (look out for Mikiro 2: The return of the killa' in a server near you this fall) SM, cos they are bunch of cuddly old softies and we luv em. But, i can shoot at everyone else right? Loendal: Yes Bump. You need to list some enemies also. Ah that's easy. Every cheater, every person who cries 'Cheat!' as soon as they die once, spawn killers, people who say, 'they should put -insert some stupid or really obvious item here- in the game', people who try to convince me the hunters weapons work, people who take the game FAR too seriously to be healthy, and erm.. people who go AFK for ages and take up valuable players spots. Loendal: Not quite what was expected but I think that is the best we will get.

Sad to see a relatively long standing gang fade away, but at least it will strengthen others and theres none of this, (1950's Redneck farmer voice over), 'We aint gonna play no mo' em tee ayah, we'um movin on ova to that thar jeet At. cosa oll tha heehaw and nibbits of findleburd ', (the moonshine had caught up towards the end of that sentance). Oh and kungfu, loendal beat you on your 'dibs' for at least two of those people by several weeks in a 'always room for you buddy way' and 24hours when speaking to ransom last night. sorry *locks them in the understairs cupboard . MY STOLEN PLAYERS MIINE* Anyway, when u come vca youll be fighting with them alllll!

As you say some people take it too seriously. There are hundreds of other servers, simply play on those instead. TMM are within thier rights to ban whoever they wish on thier own server as are any other gangs/admin

What stats? Team means just that. If you want individual scores then play FFA DM

After a long chat with aeron yes, it's approved. I've asked him to make some specific changes to some of the current game mode scripts to improve them even further. So they can all be released together with it. Don't ask when, it's a lot of work.

You are a bit late. I banned him from the forums a few days ago for reasons that we don't need to go into.

There once was a boy called yamm who though it was clever to spam but what he didnt know cos of being so slow was that post counts reset with a BLAM

Very very nice. Come on people, chr15t05 has set the standard, and a high one at that. Can you match up?

whilst setting up racism kicks on disasters server: MrBump-test: lets hope nobody says auspicious Disconnected: You have been kicked.

Yes, in fact the newest version of the script has the five main variables at the top to make it very easy to edit them to suit, these are , starting lives, maximum lives, how many kills in a row to get +1 life, how long between the automatic -1 life, how long to stop the player re-entering the server once all lives are lost. So changing it to max 1 life, starting 1 life, 100 in a row (to prevent people getting a null bonus), 2 hours before -1 life (to make sure it doesnt happen), and 2 hours prevent rejoin, again to ensure nobody comes back. (you only need to do !kotc off after the match and people will be able to reenter) n.b We hope to release this along with a tweaked version of team mode and vip and possibly a new game mode script as a 'gamepack', but I hope to get subdomain mtama.mtavc.com sorted out first as mtama has fairly rapid releases and the news stories are knocking off the main MTA news from the front page.

Utopian: It seems there is no helping you, all the relevant issues have been explained yet you still reject or refuse to take them in, so lets just leave it that you personally cannot shoot anyone. Meanwhile other people with the same question can read our tips and improve thier game Prokopis:you said 'OF course we didn't have the "knocked-down-ppl-walking" illusions then either, but yeah, anyway'. Hehe, did u actually ever play 0.1 or 0.2? The problem was much much worse, people would slide around for ages 'flat on thier backs' because there were no animations triggered to correct them being knocked down. Now they will instantly pop back up as soon as they move because the walk run or strafe anims will have been triggered.

I guess we have less creative mta fans than I'd hoped.

(incubi|dippA|7y|) how come i cant update my damn gta3 to v 1.1 (MrBump) no idea, perhaps in fact you are poking a dog with a short stick? (MrBump) because as most people know that doesnt upgrade gta3 (MrBump) many bruised dogs indicate it doesnt prevent people from attempting it though (incubi|dippA|7y|) it says (MrBump) woof? (incubi|dippA|7y|) unknown version (MrBump) oh (MrBump) your dog can TALK!? omfg And now for my daily IRC Clitoris (Collected Lines I've Taken Outside Real Intended Sense) (SM|xenex) me and kent still going (SM|xenex) wellll its only me and phuk actaully (SM|xenex) but i started wWAY too late (SM|xenex) ............and phuk is still going with himself (Black_Dragon) and its all because kent doesnt want to help me ;( (Kent767) Robpol86 EXPLODED (silentD[A]) my eyes hurt X(

heli controls are configurable, rotate turret = rotate heli, lean forwards and backwards = lean heli

Seems you dont, or you wouldnt post somethign so silly. Personally i could die a happy man having had the experience of playing mtavc0.2 and 0.3, as could most gta fans. We certainly arent going to give up, and as for an inbuilt multiplayer from rockstar you wont see that until gta4 at the earliest, and as we have around a year before we see the PC version of the next installment of gta3 before they can concentrate on gta4... theres a while yet.

Wow thats one longarse post. You could have simply asked 'Will you compile a freeBSD version of the server for us?'. The answer to that is yes. Find me on irc and I will get it to you.

i said 'Drunk pills', he called them drugs.

So, you post asking how to hit people, then seemingly ignore the clear answers and useful tips given then go on to post a whole load of (bogus) methods you use yourself telling people to use them? Crazy. [NOTE: utopias post was removed as it was steeringmany new players in the wrong direction with totally inaccurate advice] Shotguns suffer the same problems as any other weapon, I'm presuming you didnt actually bother to READ my reply. So, read it, look for keywords 'ignore the blood' and 'offset' and 'ping' Any other new peeps reading this thread please note you should only pay attention to the initial tips and deathb's expansion. Ignore the later list.

To save time i will put # for 'already suggested and discussed elsewhere on the forums' 1. # 2. # 3. # 4. # 5. Not possible, admin doesnt know player locations 6. Points system:Nice idea, will look into it with aeron. 'Holding' fugitive status, im not sure about that one, seems fairer to select at random especially if you add a points system. Everyone needs oppertunity to earn points. Thanks for the suggestions but please do search the forums in future to see if something has already been covered.

The drunk pills are still in the stunt mode, but only two now, one of which is in a new location, i shant say where exactly but a clue is where would you EXPECT to find drugs? p.s. the posts above are bordering on spam, keep them for suitable threads please

Quote: "yamm was almost done doing that in one client only mta didnt release it i think. yamm must do everything and stop helping mta the gotta make there own mods now????" I think two things need to be made clear, If by 'yamm' you mean the old multiplayer mod and team, then they no longer exist, they merged with mta a long time ago and both teams along with some newer faces are all now MTA. If however by yamm you mean sm-yamm, ulk_p90, first-time-gta-user (all the same person) then he has most definately not helped in any way, quite the opposite, hes banned from the IRC for constantly begging for source code despite being told to quit doing so, and pretty soon he may end up banned on these forums too if he doesnt stop giving the impression he is involved in the making of mta and/or insulting the team members.
